Hi,
Bad to have these around!
Do you have a Farm Store, Agricultural Agent, or any type of Farm Products store in your local area? If so, tell them the problem. Also, if a Lowe's store around, they could probably help you, too, with what to use. Might be a "dust" type of powder to spread around on the lawn, instead of a spray.
If you don't want your lawn sprayed by a Professional, you can do it yourself. After talking with someone at a Store, buy a gallon hand sprayer, and any product that says "kill ticks". Mix according to directions, and spray your yard. Keep the kids off the yard for a day or two.
The same goes for fleas. Once fleas get into a lawn, it's hard to get rid of them, without using a sprayer with pesticides of some type. That's what pesticides are for.
I do wish you the best, and good luck.
